Following up on the announcement made in
December that Lexus would be expanding its range of battery electric vehicles
(BEV), Toyota Motor Corporation has released teaser images of the all-new
sports car from its luxury brand stable.
The new sports model will be part of a full
line-up of battery EVs Lexus will launch by 2030 under its Lexus Electrified
brand.
With the bold proportions and low ride
height required for a high-performance sports car, the new model symbolises the
future of the Lexus brand while also reviving the spirit of the iconic Lexus
LFA.
Acceleration from 0-100 km/h will be in the
low two-second range and the cruising distance will exceed 700 km, thanks to
the possible use of solid-state batteries.
Through its development of battery EV
vehicles, Lexus will evolve into a brand that offers a range of driving
experiences, harnessing its unique performance development capabilities, and
honing its craft of making products that are ever more personalised in their
performance, quality, and appeal.
